List of top Water Science and Technology Questions on General Agriculture

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : A tensiometer vacuum gauge has divisions in the range of 0 to 100 centibars although in practice the range of operation of a tensiometer is 0 to 85 centibars.
Reason (R) : At the upper limit of 85 centibars, the column of water in the tube will form water vapour bubbles and the instrument will cease to function.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : A good measure of dispersion needs to be least affected by change in the sampling.
Reason (R) : Standard deviation is the best measure of dispersion.

Which of the followings statements are true about the cut-throat and Parshall flumes.
(A) The cut-throat flume is similar to the Parshall flume, but has no throat section, only converging and diverging sections
(B) It gives nearly as accurate measurements as Parshall flume in free flow condition for smaller throat widths
(C) Angles of convergence and divergence of cut-throat flume changes with size of the flume
(D) Because it is easier to construct and install, the cut-throat flume is often preferred to the Parshall flume

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : The probability of a sure event is 1.
Reason (R) : Let E be an event. Then \(0 \le P(E) \le 1\).
